Blurb
It’s the summer holidays and Terry and Denny are on a riotous adventure around Dundale, leaving havoc in their wake. From guitar-smashing to dropping a hamster into his granny's knickers, Terry is the boss, with Denny at his heels. But when they take a trip to the big smoke, the tables turn… With a raw hunger for discovery and an untamed imagination, thirteen-year-old Denny tells a story of the innocent bonds of childhood friendship.
Terry Shags Sheep is an 80,000 word literary fiction manuscript set in 1980s rural northern England.
